Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a device for supplying a hydraulic medium to a drive element rotatably mounted in a transmission case, as claimed in the preamble of claim 1.
- In general, drive elements rotatably mounted in a transmission case—only one example being the pulley set of continuously variable transmission in a motor vehicle, with a hydraulically adjustable loose pulley which can be axially moved relative to the fixed pulley—are transmitted by way of channels in the shaft which bears the drive element by a coaxially configured element which is connected to the hydraulic control. In particular, when several separate channels are necessary for hydraulic control, this results in a significant production engineering effort and a considerable weakening of the indicated shaft due to the required shaft bores.
- The object of the invention is to propose a device of the generic type which enables reliable hydraulic supply of a drive element without shaft holes.
- This object is achieved as claimed in the invention with the characteristics specified in claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are cited in the other patent claims.
- As claimed in the invention, it is proposed that the drive element is nonrotatably connected to the other element and that the contact connection is at least one unthreaded conduit which is inserted tightly into the two channels and which extends directly from the element to the drive element. At least one unthreaded conduit turns with the element which supplies the hydraulic medium; shaft bores can accordingly be omitted. Furthermore, at least one unthreaded conduit forms a connection which to a limited degree allows universal movements and axial compensation between the drive element and the other element; this results in supply of the hydraulic medium to the drive element which is reliable even with unfavorable tolerance pairings and operating conditions (temperature, load) or axial slip. Another major advantage is that if necessary the supplying element can be a component of the transmission which also performs other functions (for example, routing the hydraulic medium through a coaxially adjacent gear which turns with the drive element).
- At least one unthreaded conduit can extend radially within a roller bearing which is provided between the drive element and the adjacently located element. This makes possible supply of the drive element by way of at least one unthreaded conduit even if support is indicated between the drive element and the other element for transmission engineering purposes.
- Preferably the inner ring of the roller bearing can sit on the neck of the drive element and at least one unthreaded conduit can run in a corresponding recess of the neck. The unthreaded conduit can thus be partially integrated into the drive element without added construction effort and space consumption.
- Simple axial locking is achieved by the unthreaded conduit being provided with a radial projection by means of which it is held on the front between the inner ring of the roller bearing and the following drive element.
- Furthermore, for easy installation of the transmission element the unthreaded conduit on the two ends can bear gaskets for sealing with the adjoining channels in the drive element and the other element. This makes it possible to easily assemble the transmission elements and enables routing of the hydraulic medium which is insensitive to vibrations and which is guided hermetically sealed even in the event of limited universal and axial relative movements.
- Especially preferably provision can be made for several unthreaded conduits which are distributed over the periphery of the drive element and which correspond to the appropriate channels in the drive element and in the other element. Either at the same time larger hydraulic amounts or with separate channels different hydraulic functions can be controlled by way of the unthreaded conduits.
- Furthermore, the annular hydraulic chamber can be supplied using an actuating piston for movement of the drive element by way of the channels and unthreaded conduits. By using unthreaded conduits, in addition to the aforementioned advantages, channel routing within the drive element can also be simplified, because the unthreaded conduits if necessary enable direct supply of the hydraulic medium to the annular hydraulic chamber.
- Advantageously there can be spline-teeth as the nonrotatable connection between the drive element and the other element; they are configured as an unthreaded connection radially within the roller bearing on the neck of the drive element and on the annular projection of the other element. This makes possible a structurally favorable and compact transmission design which moreover yields further simplification of assembly and axial tolerance compensation.
- Finally, in one preferred application of the invention the drive element can be a driven pulley set of a continuously variable transmission for motor vehicles and the other element can be the differential gear case of a torsen differential, the output to the axle of the motor vehicle extending through the hollow shaft of the pulley set and the transmission ratio of the pulley set to the looping means being controllable by way of channels and the unthreaded conduits. The concept of a torsen differential is known in mechanical engineering and especially in transmission engineering.
- One embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below.
- The attached schematic shows in a longitudinal section a device for hydraulic supply of the driven pulley set of a continuously variable transmission for a motor vehicle.
- In the drawing, 10 generally designates a drive assembly which is rotatably mounted in an only partially shown
transmission case 12 and which is composed essentially of an only partially shown drivenpulley set 14 as the drive element and atorsen differential 16 which is located coaxially adjacent to it as the other element. - The
pulley set 14 is one part of the continuously variable transmission for motor vehicles and interacts in the conventional manner by way of a chain or an articulated belt with a drive pulley set (not shown) located on the input shaft of the transmission. - The driven
pulley set 14 has a fixed pulley (not shown in the drawings) which forms a common component with an adjoininghollow shaft 18. The fixed pulley is supported to be axially immovable in one wall of thetransmission case 12 by way of a double-row taper roller bearing. - On the
hollow shaft 18 theloose pulley 20 is guided to be axially movable, a spline connection which is designated as 22 producing positive locking in the peripheral direction. Here theloose pulley 20 as shown in the drawings to the left is pretensioned by means of ahelical compression spring 24 which is supported on theguide section 26. Theguide section 26 is connected permanently to thehollow shaft 18 by an annular laser weld at 28. - To move the
loose pulley 20 relative to the fixed pulley which is not shown, between theguide section 26 and theloose pulley 20 by means ofannular sheets loose pulley 20, two annularhydraulic chambers piston 38. The actuatingpiston 38 which is permanently connected to theguide section 26 by way of anedged connection 40 acts as the reaction element to the corresponding axial adjustment of theloose pulley 20 when thehydraulic chambers - The
guide section 26 has anannular neck 42 with theinner ring 44 of the roller bearing or ball bearing 46 sitting on its outer periphery. The ball bearing 46 is held in thetransmission case wall 48 in acorresponding recess 50 and thus acts as another pivot bearing for the pulley set 14. - On the inside periphery of the
annular neck 42, for example in the plane of rotation of the ball bearing 46, spline-teeth designated as 52 in general are machined and interact with the corresponding spline-teeth on the sleeve-shaped projection 54 of thedifferential gear case 56 of thetorsen differential 16 as a driving connection. - In the
differential gear case 56, threeworm gear pairs 58 which are distributed uniformly in the conventional manner over its periphery are supported and engage the corresponding drivengears 60, 62. The drivengears 60, 62 sit nonrotatably on drivenshafts 64, 66, of which the drivenshaft 64, through thehollow shaft 18 by way of a drive pinion which is not shown and a front differential, drives the front wheels of the motor vehicle, and the driven shaft 66, by way of a connected universal shaft and the rear differential, drives the rear wheels of the motor vehicle. - The
drive shaft 64, in addition to the support which is not shown, is supported in the area of the drive pinion in one loading direction by way of an axial bearing 68 on thehollow shaft 18, its one retainer ring 70 being held on a locking ring 74 which is forced into an annular groove 72. - The
torsen differential 16 and its operating parts are lubricated with lubricating oil from the front differential which is not shown, afeed channel 76 which is provided in the drivenshaft 64 discharging into thedifferential gear case 56. The return of the lubricating oil takes place in the opposite direction through thehollow shaft 18, in addition to the axial bearing 68 two radially supporting needle bearings 78 (only one needle bearing 78 is shown, the second is positioned approximately in the area of the fixed pulley) between thehollow shaft 18 and the drivenshaft 64 being lubricated. - The
torsen differential 16 is made fully encapsulated in order to ensure only lubrication of the described operating parts with the differential lubricating oil (a hypoid oil). For this purpose, there is anannular cover part 80 which encloses thedifferential gear case 56 and which seals thedifferential gear case 56 to the outside in conjunction withgaskets 82. Another gasket 84 is inserted in the area of the spline-teeth 52 between thehollow shaft 18 and the sleeve-shaped projection 54 of thedifferential gear case 56. - The front seal of the
differential gear case 56 finally effects a tubular piston ring insert 86 with a connectingflange 88 with anothergasket 56 which it is screwed (screws 92) tightly to thedifferential gear case 56 and the axial seal (not shown). - The
piston ring 86 and accordingly thedifferential gear case 56 are pivotally mounted directly following the connectingflange 88 by means of another roller bearing or ball bearing 94 in acorresponding receiver 96 on the housing, theannular section 97 of thepiston ring insert 86 which is provided with piston rings 98 in the corresponding outside grooves 99 projecting, as is apparent, into acylindrical hole 100 of thehousing part 102 which has thereceiver 96. - The rotationally symmetrical sealing sleeve 104 which is inserted into the piston ring insert 86 projects axially over the
annular section 97 and is sealed to thehousing part 102 by way of arotary shaft seal 124 so that hydraulic medium cannot emerge from thechannels - The
hydraulic chambers piston ring insert 86 and the rotationally symmetrical sealing sleeve 104 which is inserted into it, by way of the illustratedchannels 106 which are each provided with a uniform reference number in thehousing part 102, by way of thechannels 108 which are formed by the longitudinal grooves in thepiston ring insert 86, by way of thechannels 110 which are machined in thedifferential gear case 56, and finally by way of thecorresponding channels 112 in the guide section 26 (only onechannel 112 is shown in the sectional view of the drawing). - The hydraulic connection between the
channels 110 in thedifferential gear case 56 and thechannels 112 in theguide section 26 is formed by three unthreaded conduits 114. The unthreaded conduits 114 each project with the interposition ofgaskets 116 on the one hand into a corresponding front recess of theguide section 26 and of thedifferential gear case 56, said unthreaded conduits being guided through recesses 118 of theguide section 26, which are open radially to the outside and which are semicircular when viewed in cross section, within theinner ring 44 of the ball bearing 46. - The unthreaded conduits 114 (to move the loose pulley, as stated, there are three unthreaded conduits 114 which are distributed uniformly over the periphery of the
guide section 26 and of the differential gear case 56) are held by means ofradial projections 120 which are molded onto them between theinner ring 44 and the front recess 122 of theguide section 26. Axial guidance of the unthreaded conduit can also be selectively guaranteed by contact of the end surfaces.
